The art is for me to feed pieces to you and make you believe you took those pieces, because your smarter and i'm dumber.
In every game or con, there is always an opponent and theres always a victim. The more control the victim thinks he has, the less control he
actually has, gradually, he'll hang himself then I as the opponent just help him along.

The Formula has infinite depth in its efficency and application.
Rule 1 : You can only get smarter by playing a smarter opponent.

Rule 2 : The more sophisticated the game - the more sophisticated the opponent. If the opponent is very good, he will place his victim inside an environment he can control.
The bigger the trick and older the trick - the easier it is to pull. Based on two
principles : They think it can't be that old, or they think it can't be that big for
so many people to have fallen for it.
Rule 3 : You will always find a good opponent in the very last place you would ever look.
